-The Program will provide competitive salary practices, through comparison to appropriate talent markets, that are fair, equitable and financially sustainable.
-OSU’s work environment will be improved through this Program by providing opportunities for all Professional Faculty to achieve career and work life goals.
-Over time, the Program will facilitate recognition and reward of productivity, work effectiveness, and contribution to the University’s goals, thereby encouraging life-long learning and development.
